Struggling Aswan will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying Al Masry in the upcoming league round. It’s 13th vs 4th and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.

Insights:
  • Aswan have the fewest scored goals (11) in Premier League
  • Al Masry have scored more than double the goals of Aswan.

Aswan have less rest than Al Masry in this fixture, as the hosts were involved in a Premier League game only four days ago. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at El Geish.

These teams have little in common geographically as Al Masry have to travel 900 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
